USAF Airmen from the 16th Airlift Squadron at Joint Base Charleston, SC, execute a parachute air drop of eight Humvee military convoy vehicles from a C-17 Globemaster III to a drop zone in Fort Bragg, NC.
Craigslist next day: Dropped once from a C-17 Globemaster, small minor scratches, almost mint condition, guaranteed to fit in the whole family!
(Some minor assembly required.)
The sight of a C-17 Globemaster III aircraft cruising through the skies is impressive on its own, but when it’s engaged in a complex air drop mission, its capabilities truly shine. The mission required meticulous planning and collaboration between pilots, loadmasters, ground crews, and support personnel. Each Humvee had to be secured properly for the drop, ensuring that it would safely parachute to the designated drop zone below.
